Saeid Rabie men salon

The best barbershop experience of my life. Entire staff treats you with warmth and kindness. I highly recommend this experience.

The worst place to get a haircut. I’m a Lebanese guy who came to Egypt as a tourist. I wanted a haircut, so I went to Said Rabih Makram Ebeid. As soon as I walked in, the manager told me to wash my hair before getting a haircut. I told him no, I had just showered. He kept quiet and left me sitting there until the barber arrived. He called the barber back, but I don’t know what he said. The barber came and told me I had to wash my hair so the cut would look better, even though my hair had just come out of the shower and shampoo before I went to get a haircut. I said okay. We washed, and after we finished, he started drying my hair with a hairdryer until it was completely dry (I didn’t understand what he was doing with that). Anyway, he started cutting. I showed him a picture of a style I liked. He started cutting, afraid to cut too short, even though the picture was clear. Then I told him to cut it even shorter. After wasting about half an hour, he decided to cut it even shorter. The right side was okay. When he moved to the left side, he suddenly cut the hair too short, and I noticed he was clearly nervous. I told him, “Don’t worry, I’ll cut it shorter on the other side.” He cut it much shorter on the right side than the left. Anyway, it turned out to be the worst haircut I’ve ever had. The right side is way longer than the left. The front is completely uneven. The back is a total mess, like I’ve been hit on the head. Then he told me to do a hair treatment. I told him I have my own medicated shampoo. He then asked me to do a hot facial. I said no. He said, “Okay, we’ll dye your gray hair.” I said no. He said, “Okay, buy some L’Oreal cream; I have a great one.” I told him I don’t put anything on my hair. It was obvious their only concern was to make a huge profit on me by any means necessary, with a haircut that was practically worthless. And on top of that, they charged me 850 Egyptian pounds. It’s not the money that’s the problem. It’s the dishonesty and the haircut I’m going to wear to the wedding with my head looking like it has knife wounds on it. This salon really has no integrity. I’d pay you 2000 pounds, just give me the cut I want, or tell me you’re a beginner barber, and I’ll understand.
